On draught at Buffalo wild wings.
Cloudy orange with a lot of foam. Decent lacing.
Man is that nose light. Wheat, only hints of it really. As far as spices and fruits go, I don't get any. Same goes for the taste. This is a Wheat ale not a Hefeweizen.

Sometimes I'm amazed by the amount of beers I've had, I dunno, 100 times or more that I haven't ever written a beer review for. Well, 2017, Pyramid Hefeweizen, here you go. Before there was Blue Moon, Pyramid seemed to have a good amount of the market share for craft beers.

Pours dull cloudy yellow with a full 1" of white head on it. Pretty classic look I would say. Aroma of wheat, mild Belgian banana yeast. Pretty clean compared to more traditional hefe yeasts.

Taste is mild, imparts wheat, mild clove, stays away from the heavy banana and band aid notes. Not dry or phenolic. somewhere between an American wheat and a hefeweizen, this beer lies in that middle ground. Easy to drink, a throwback to the late 80s and 90s.

Backlog. 12 oz bottle. Smells of wheat, lemons, Granny Smith apples. Disappointing head and below average hazy hue when compared to its German counterparts. Flavor is very American rather than German. Tastes of wheat--like it should--and lemons (I did not put a lemon wedge in it, ya wankers). This beer was much better straight out of the bottle.
